What's the Buzz with BB Creams?

BB Creams have been incredibly popular within the last year thanks to YouTube Gurus gushing over their claims and the magic that they cultivate, but BB Creams have actually been around for quite sometime many times being called by their full names "Beauty Balms" or "Blemish Balms". Originated in Europe by German Dermatologists for patients with acne scars, BB Creams were also wonder workers for skin showing other scarifications from laser procedures; BB Creams helped lighten up acne scars to the point of setting off the craze of what is so wildly known today as BB Cream.

Everyone's Got One:
Once sold primarily in Asia, now everyone from Mac to Etude House, seems to be jumping on the BB Cream bandwagon. BB Cream has some wonderful soothing properties and is also known for cellular regeneration on an epithelial level.
